TL;DR: Trello is a flexible Kanban tool with a huge Power-Up ecosystem. Evrybo offers similar Kanban boards but adds built-in design feedback and user research surveys, so you need fewer tools overall. Choose Trello if you need broad integrations. Choose Evrybo if you want tasks, feedback, and surveys in one place.
Why Teams Look for Trello Alternatives
Trello defined the Kanban board for millions of teams. The simplicity of boards, lists, and cards is hard to beat.
But as teams grow beyond basic task tracking, some friction points show up:
- Power-Ups add up. Many features that feel essential (custom fields, timeline view, advanced automations) require paid Power-Ups or higher-tier plans.
- No native design review. If your team works on visual projects, you need separate tools to collect feedback on designs.
- No survey or research features. Running user research means adding another subscription.
- Context-switching. Jumping between Trello for tasks, a feedback tool for design review, and a survey tool for research fragments your workflow.
Trello’s strength is being a lightweight, general-purpose tool. If you need more depth in specific areas, it often means stacking additional tools on top.
How Evrybo Compares to Trello
Both tools are built around Kanban boards. The difference is what comes alongside the boards.
Task Management
Trello offers boards, lists, and cards with a flexible Power-Up system to extend functionality. Butler automations, custom fields, and multiple views (timeline, calendar, dashboard) are available on higher-tier plans.
Evrybo offers Kanban boards with drag-and-drop, assignees, priorities, due dates, and subtasks. The feature set is narrower than Trello’s higher tiers but covers what most small teams need without requiring add-ons.
Bottom line: Trello offers more task management depth through Power-Ups and higher-tier plans. Evrybo covers the essentials with fewer moving parts.
Design Feedback
Trello does not include native design review. You can attach images to cards, but there is no way to pin comments on specific areas of a design or share interactive prototypes. Teams typically pair Trello with tools like Figma comments or dedicated review platforms.
Evrybo includes design feedback built in. Upload images, pin comments on specific areas, create interactive prototypes, and share with clients who can review without creating an account. A Figma plugin syncs designs with one click.
Bottom line: If your team reviews visual work regularly, Evrybo saves you a separate feedback tool. If design review is not part of your workflow, this difference does not matter.
User Research
Trello does not include surveys or forms. You would typically pair it with Typeform, Google Forms, or similar.
Evrybo includes a survey builder with 15+ question types, conditional logic, and an AI form generator, connected to your project workspace.
Bottom line: If you collect user feedback through surveys, Evrybo handles it without an extra subscription.
Integrations
Trello has a massive ecosystem. Hundreds of Power-Ups and integrations connect Trello to tools like Slack, Google Drive, Jira, GitHub, and more.
Evrybo has a smaller integration footprint. It includes a Figma plugin and Chrome extension, but does not match Trello’s breadth of third-party connections.
Bottom line: If your workflow depends heavily on integrations with other tools, Trello has a significant advantage here.
Pricing
Evrybo starts at $4/month per user with a free plan available. Trello also offers a free tier with paid plans that vary by feature set. Check Trello’s website for current rates. The key difference is not just the per-user cost but what is included: Evrybo bundles feedback and survey tools, while Trello may require additional Power-Ups or separate tools to match.
Who Should Choose Trello
Trello is the right choice if:
- You need a general-purpose Kanban tool that connects with many other apps
- Your workflow relies on Power-Ups and integrations like Slack, GitHub, or Jira
- You want timeline views, automations, or dashboards available through paid tiers
- Design feedback and surveys are not part of your workflow
- You prefer the flexibility of building your own stack with best-of-breed tools
Who Should Choose Evrybo
Evrybo is built for teams who:
- Want Kanban boards plus feedback and surveys in one place
- Work on visual projects and need to review designs alongside tasks
- Run user research or feedback surveys as part of their workflow
- Have a small team (2-15 people) and want fewer subscriptions
- Value getting started quickly over customizing a complex setup
Switching from Trello
Evrybo does not currently offer automated import from Trello. You would recreate your boards manually, which usually takes less than an hour for small teams.
What you will gain: built-in design feedback and survey tools, potentially at a lower total cost than Trello plus separate feedback and survey subscriptions.
What you might miss: Trello’s Power-Up ecosystem, Butler automations, and the breadth of third-party integrations.
